<p>Every museum professional needs a solid foundation in
preservation principles and techniques. Introduction to
Collections Preservation provides an overview of current
preservation issues from environmental monitoring to collection
cleaning, exhibit mounts and storage furniture. Participants learn
about every aspect of the modern museum and how the building,
staff and fixtures affect preservation. Subjects include the
agents of deterioration, risk management, object handling and
transport, object labeling, exhibit lighting, security, emergency
preparedness, materials for storage and display, storage and
exhibit philosophies, and condition assessments.</p>
